Definitive King's Fall Strats? *Vid* (Destiny)

Running the Raid a few nights ago, I realized just how much conflict arises from simply trying to decide a strategy in the King's Fall raid. Nearly every room was met with conflicting ideas and preferred strategies.

Hopefully we can start compromising between ideal/fun/efficient/forgiving/fastest strategies. What are yours?

Here's a clip from our Sisters run, where we go to the central platforms between the sisters, taking the Aura from the non-singing one, since the theory of no-snipers was tested and apparently false:

At 0:37, Sammy Tethered the Sister, which is actually extremely helpful (contrary to popular belief). The difference of 2000 damage per ToM bullet is pretty significant (compare to the non-tethered second sister).

At 0:55, we immediately focus on the Adds, and we have them all gone before the singing is done. Immediately after the screen clears, we move to our platforms, avoiding the Blight in the middle.

At 1:20, Cody makes the super-common mistake of getting in the way of the jump. Hopefully people practice jumping up on the side of the platforms more, as that has caused many a failed jump-> wasted time-> wipe.

At 1:44, I don't quite land in the center of the platform when I steal the shield, which increases the chances of being launched off to the sides. Luckily I landed near the team and was able to shield them and keep them alive (with help from a Blessing Bubble).

That's my favorite strategy. It's quick, simple, effective, and has very few moving parts. I hate the strategies of staying near the entrance or going behind L2 and R2, since they waste too much time and expose you all to more enemies between rounds...
